A-DATA is one of the few companies, which offer 32 GB Compact Flash cards. We take a look at the unit and also give it a go as a hard drive, as it certainly has the size for such a scenario.

I bought this very CF card for my Olympus E410 10mp DSLR & love having tons of space. It's the Suburban of CF cards, not the sportiest, but can handle bid loads.

I worry about corrupted images more than raw speed. Nothing is worse than going out and shooting a bunch of images and discovering some key shots have gotten ruined. You didn't get any corrupted images when you used this for Computex did you?

Hi guys
I have a very serious question that i need your help with -
I also bought the 32GB A-data speedy CF but i didnt format it when i first bought it. after taking millions of photos on my Sony A300 i was trying to upload the pics onto the computer. i was asked to "format" at the time which i selected "yes". Now the problem is all the pics are gone and there are only 7.38GB formated from the 32GB. Please help me to get my important pics back if not at least the full capacity. thank you.
